Ok since i cant decide whether to get a Skunk2 or Neuspeed Upper Front Stut Bar i was lookin on the net and i came upon a Spoon Front Stut Bar...Ok where can I get a Spoon Front Upper Strut bar for a good price and do they fit a 2000 SH???

 

they fit the SH. i got mine for $350, front and rear from http://www.redlyne.com

edit: seems redlyne has changed to Pole Position Products, and no longer carries parts for Preludes.

ok see that pisses me off...when someone carries parts for our cars then they just drop it..wtf!!!!
Now where am I supposed to get a Spoon Front Upper Strut Bar?????

 

They have been sadly discontinued. You have to buy them used or get lucky. I think they were discontinued a year ago or some such thing. My friend has them and has been meaning to get rid of them, if you give him a good offer Im sure he will sell. Anyway good luck.

 

is his front strut bar in excellent condition???? ill give him 145 for the front....we can dicuss this further if it is too low

 

go to preludeonline.com and check the parts classified....there's a guy selling them for 350 for both... or about...160 for just the front....

call up the people from http://www.randdmotorsports.com i got mine for 362 shipped?

 

Mine should be coming in tomorrow. I got them from www.randdmotorsports.com A few days ago they made a thread saying they have 15 sets left. Either email them or contacr username *FAST4DR* if you want them. If I'm not terribly impressed with them I'll probably sell mine in a little while - if you can't get your hands on a set keep that in mind

 

R & D MotorSports only has the strut bar for the 97-99 prelude.....i have a 2000 SH...would it fit??? same thing with the rear...would it fit???

 

it'll fit just fine.

 

yes, it would fit...the SH's strut mounting points aren't any different.

I wouldn't get eh spoon bars unless they are the same price or less than the neuspeed. I think w/the spoon you are just paying for the name.

 

are the spoon rear bars any different from a DC sports? meaning in shape/diameter. i'm thinkin of gettin spoons too, but i had my sub box cut out to fit my DC sports.

 

From what I heard DC bars are garbage. Here is a link to see what the spoons look like. http://www.ntpog.org/reviews/spoon/spoon.shtml

 

i've seen a few DC bars break during some extreme handling situations.

 

unfortunately, Spoon is one of the few bands that makes a front AND rear bar for the 97+ prelude that is of decent quality and strength.

 

I just got my spoon bars shipped today. DAMN these things are very nice. too bad it was too dark and too cold to put them on, . Till tomorrow.

 

I put them on today and the car feels more stable in turns. Body roll is noticably reduced. I drove around a bit with only the rear one in and the car had more of a tendency to oversteer, but with both of them on its more stable all around.

 

you can get them at

Call Dave at R&D Motorsports. The Spoon bars were discontinued until Dave got enough Prelude owners together to pre-order to convince Spoon to do another prodution run. Most of the bars were pre-sold, but he still has a handful of sets left. They are in stock and ready to ship. But once R&D sells them out, the Spoon bars are gone...

Although I wouldnt trade and wouldnt buy another front bar I really think the Neuspeed bar is better. The design of the Spoon bar leave a little to be desired for functionality but in terms of looks there's non better IMHO.
